What the study showed, in plain terms

This 2025 randomized trial found several favorable skin changes with a 60 mg/day HA matrix ingredient, including wrinkle/smoothness and roughness differences versus placebo at selected time points. Because Dermial also contains sulfated glycosaminoglycans and collagen, the result is formulation evidence rather than an isolated-HA trial.
